Ali Aneizi
Libyan politician
Ali Noureddin el-Anezi, or Ali Noureddin al-Unayzi (Arabic: علي نور الدين العنيزي) (1904–1983) was a Libyan politician. He had been the first governor of Central Bank of Libya.[1] Before Libya's independence, he was a member of the "Liberation of Libya" committee. Then, he succeeded in convincing Emile Saint-Lot, Haiti's representative to the United Nations, to vote against Bevin-Sforza Plan [de], a plan to make the three regions of Libya (Tripolitania, Cyrenaica, Fezzan) under the mandate of three countries (Italy, United Kingdom, France respectively). Saint-Lot's vote was decisive in the plan's refusal.[2]
After independence, he became Minister of Finance (1953–1955),[3] then became the first governor of the central bank of Libya in April 1955, an office he had held to March 1961.[4]
Thereafter, he became an ambassador of Libya to Lebanon, then a minister of petroleum (November 1963–March 1964).[1][5]
